Geoimage launches a new and highly flexible HPC infrastructure with CELSIUS Workstations, PRIMERGY CX servers and ETERNUS DX storage system

"We had a lot of confidence in Fujitsu from prior experience. Typically, we want best-in-class performance and that’s what we saw when looking at Fujitsu workstations and HPC servers."

Challenge

Geoimage’s existing custom-built PCs were not capable of handling the new PCI Geomatics GeoImaging Accelerator software, which is vital to maintaining a competitive market advantage. It needed to find a new hardware platform that was up to the task.

Solution

Working with trusted IT partner, AfterDark Technology, the company deployed five FUJITSU Workstation CELSIUS devices, in tandem with a FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY CX400 and a FUJITSU Storage ETERNUS DX200 to provide flexible HPC processing power.
